Bully Ray heaps praise on Chris Jericho for AEW's success

The inaugural AEW World Champion took the promotion in his hands from the very start. In the initial years, the promotion revolved around him. However, his popularity has diminished in recent years as many believe he has overstayed his welcome.

While speaking on Busted Open Radio, veteran Bully Ray claimed that Jericho is AEW's biggest star and deserved his own locker room. His vast experience in worldwide promotions has benefited the Jacksonville-based promotion.

Chris Jericho is the biggest worldwide superstar in the company. There is no bigger star in AEW than Chris Jericho. It would be impossible, because Chris Jericho worked for the WWE, Chris Jericho worked for New Japan. Chris Jericho is a name all of the planet, whether it's wrestling, whether it's rock and roll band. I understand why Chris Jericho would have his own locker room," he said.

The Le Champion has been absent from AEW since April. It will be interesting to see when he returns to the squared circle.
